People ‘have to choose partners’ when dating online

People who are using online dating websites to find love – which could include single soldiers – have to make sure they are willing to choose one person.

This is because very often individuals may struggle to make a selection if they have too many options, the Independent reports.

As a result of this, individuals may find it beneficial to have a specific list of attributes they are looking for in a man or woman.

"Deciding on priorities before looking at who is available will help to counteract the choice effect," the news provider observed.

For example, those who are interested in meeting hot soldiers may like to discount anyone who is not employed by the armed forces when trying to arrange dates.

Marci Rich, writing in the Richmond Times Dispatch, recently noted there are plenty of people who find their partner online and have a loving relationship with them.
